Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2022 17:12:06 +0200 From: Greg KH <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org> Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>, Saravana Kannan <saravanak@...gle.com> Subject: [GIT PULL] Driver core fixes for 6.0-rc7 The following changes since commit 80e78fcce86de0288793a0ef0f6acf37656ee4cf: Linux 6.0-rc5 (2022-09-11 16:22:01 -0400) are available in the Git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git tags/driver-core-6.0-rc7 for you to fetch changes up to d7f06bdd6ee87fbefa05af5f57361d85e7715b11: drivers/base: Fix unsigned comparison to -1 in CPUMAP_FILE_MAX_BYTES (2022-09-22 13:13:12 +0200) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Driver core fixes for 6.0-rc7 Here are two tiny driver core fixes for 6.0-rc7 that resolve some oft-reported problems. The first is a revert of the "fw_devlink.strict=1" default option that we keep trying to enable, but we keep finding platforms that this just breaks everything on. So again, we need it reverted and hopefully it can be worked on in future releases. The second is a sysfs file-size bugfix that resolves an issue that many people are starting to hit as the fix it is fixing also was backported to stable kernels. The util-linux developers are starting to get bugreports about sysfs files that contain no data because of this problem, and this fix which has been in linux-next in the bitfield tree for a long time, resolves it. I'm submitting it here as it needs to be merged for 6.0-final, not for 6.1-rc1. Both of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues, only reports were that these fixed problems.
